Consumer Description
THIS IS MIND BOGGLING! HERE IS A 2020 MODEL 3 TESLA IN THE JUNKYARD. HTTPS://WWW.IAAI.COM/VEHICLEDETAILS/37712955?ROWNUMBER=3 IT HAS NOT BEEN IN A COLLISION, NO AIR-BAGS HAVE DEPLOYED AND THERE IS NO SIGN OF ANY IMPACT TO THE BODYWORK. THE FRONT SUSPENSION HAS SIMPLY FALLEN TO BITS. ALL THE BALL-JOINTS HAVE POPPED APART AND EVEN THE STEERING KNUCKLE HAS SNAPPED IN HALF. AND MUSK CLAIMS THAT THIS IS THE SAFEST CAR IN THE WORLD! PIGS BOTTOM! HAVE A GREAT DAY AND BE SURE TO BAN THESE JUNKHEAPS FROM THE HIGHWAYS. THANKS KEEF
